Dickson will give his presentation at 11 a.m., Oct. 29 as part of Austin Innotech trade show.

As a longtime security professional, Dickson understands the concerns of security manager. “We have a lot of businesses with widely different interpretations, Dickson said.

“However, you can’t turn it off either,” he added. “With a tailored business goals and policies in place, a company can adopt a social media policy that allows young knowledge workers to use Twitter and Facebook.”

Dickson is part of a contingent of security and technology speakers from San Antonio that will present several seminars on information security next week.

As the publicist for Austin Innotech as well as serving as a member on the Digital Convergence Initiative, I am glad to see San Antonio technology professionals like Dickson, Reich and Zachry demonstrate San Antonio’s capacity as a leader in info security.

Yet, we also have other impressive technologies as well. Austin is only an hour to 90-minute drive away. We need more San Antonio leaders to embrace the opportunity to work with Austin’s tech and business leadership so that we can become a super tech cluster like Silicon Valley or the North Carolina Research Trianagle.
